Pediatric vulvar fibrolipoma

Abstract

Fibrolipomas have been described as histologic subtypes of lipoma, which are rare
and are considered benign mesenchymal neoplasms. They are characterized as
tumors that occupy the subcutaneous plane and can appear in different parts of
the body and can be round, oval or multilobulated. There is little literature on this
clinical entity and its occurrence in pediatric age has not been reported. We present
the case of a giant vulvar tumor in a 2-year-old girl who underwent surgery after
a thorough study supported by Doppler ultrasound and whose histopathological
result reported the presence of mature adipose tissue with fibrous tracts, concluding
with the diagnosis of fibrolipoma of the vulva.
